Hand building workshop hosted by Bumi Ceramics, in collaboration with Kubo Coffee

Come join us for an evening of playing with clay! Aarthy will be teaching a hand building pottery workshop at bica. You will get to create your own espresso cup, snack bowl, bud vase (or whatever your heart & home desires) out of clay.

No experience needed - just bring your creativity and openness! Cant wait to see you there and get our hands dirty in some clay!

We will be serving delicious Filipino-inspired matcha drinks by Kubo (included in your ticket) and will also have wine/beer for purchase!

Join us next Monday for industry night at Bica from 5:30 to 9:00 pm as we host Alchemy | Choose Thy Poison for a custom dining and craft cocktail experience. DJ Edroc will also be on the patio setting the mood behind the decks.

At Alchemy | Choose Thy Poison, we don’t serve food—we craft moments. Our curated experiences are designed to awaken the senses, tell stories, and blur the line between dining and performance. From immersive punchbowl rituals to elemental tastings, fire-lit dinners, and one-night-only collaborations—each event is a journey. Limited seats. No repeats. Just presence, magic, and transformation.

bica is popping up at Bock in South Park on July 11th at 5pm until sold out.
Come hungry, grab a drink, bring some friends! And let’s get after it

We’re breaking down an entire whole 150 lb bluefin tuna live with some heavy hitters. A raw, up close experience you don’t get to see twice (maybe). Eight chefs. Eight interpretations. One fish.

What to Expect:

• Live whole tuna breakdown


• 8 chef-driven dishes


• DJ all night


• Local wine + beer included


• Sharp knives. No filler.

This isn’t a dinner. 
It’s controlled chaos with really good taste.
$125 per guest. Come hungry.
 Come curious.

When we move through life focused on only results, seldom paying attention to how we sense ourselves, living becomes habitual.

In this one hour somatic movement exploration, you will discover everything you do can always become new. By experiencing gentle movements (Feldenkrais Method), your brain can work on your behalf to find new possibilities of sensing, feeling, moving and thinking!

Includes 30-minute Q&A by movement specialist Niki de Saint Amour + a herbal tea flight offered at closing.

Be sure to bring a mat.

KAPWA x Chao Club.

Two kitchens, one table.

What started as mutual respect for each other’s food turned into something bigger — a shared vision of what dining can feel like. Cooking from memory, from culture, and from the people who shaped them.

As they celebrate AANHPI month, this dinner is a reflection of that.
Comfort flavors they grew up with, reimagined through everything they’ve learned along the way — still rooted in home.

This night is about more than just the food.
It’s about community, conversation, and the people who choose to gather around the table with them.


Food by Chao Club and Kapwa (Ming Oun).
Drink pairings by bica and Cool Hand Co.
Ice Cream by Amor.

Looks like summer came early this year, so we’re throwing another SPRITZES ON DECK party at bica next Saturday, March 28th from 5-9 p.m. to help you cool off.

Cool Hand Co. will bring the funky cocktails and bica will prepare the tapas; but this time you bring the deck of cards (or board of games). Scrabble, Yahtzee, Monopoly or Chess - it’s all fair game (sorry) as long as you’re having fun with the homies. Playing is not required but in the words of a wise man: it’d be a lot cooler if you did.

Join us this Sunday for Cinema Crudité. The marine research vessel, The Belafonte, will be dropping anchor at @bica_sd for a film screening of Wes Anderson’s nautically gonzo comedy, “The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou” (2004), paired with tin fish (unless the Jaguar shark springs into existence) and wine to serve. It will be an evening of high-sea adventure and Jacques Cousteau beanies

Doors open at 6:00 and film starts at 7:00
